I see that Robertson Davies<\/a> was born on this day in 1913.<\/p>\n

He is one of my favorite writers, near as I can tell I\u2019ve read every one of his novels.<\/p>\n

Sometimes called a \u201cgnostic,\u201d he took what I consider some of the more interesting aspects of Jungian approaches and wove them into his fiction.<\/p>\n

Although I have to admit the retelling in this video of his great novel the Fifth Business<\/span> makes it appear there was quite the soap opera quality to his work\u2026<\/p>\n
